Error while compiling CS5.5 sample code

Jun 8, 2011 4:49 AM

Hi,

 

I have just started on using InDesign CS5.5. I am trying to compile the sample code on Windows 7 and with Visual Studio 2008. On compilation it is giving me an error of SDKLib.sdk.lib

 

"LINK : fatal error LNK1181: cannot open input file '..\..\..\build\win\objr\SDKLib.sdk.lib'"

 

Have I missed some settings. I have set the Bin folder in the tools option. If anyone knows about this error please do let me know.

 

Thanks all in advance.

 

Regards,

Farzana.

    Hi to all again,

     

    I just noticed that I don't have the SDKLib.sdk.lib file in the folder. Neither for Debug or for Release I have this file. Do I need to download this from somewhere??

     

    Thanks in advance.

     

    Regards

    Farzana.

    That's probably problem with paths in your .vcproj file. Is your project one of the samples shipped with sdk or is it your code, pre-generated with DollyX?

    Try different sample.

     

    ExtendedLink, ExtendedLinkUI, PDFVTUi depends on SDKLib that need to be compiled separately and which you can find in the same directory as samples.

    Hi Bartek,

     

    Thanks, that helped. I compiled another sample and it worked. I also found the SDKLib project folder.

     

    Thanks once again.

     

    Regards

    Farzana.
